POMEROY–The Summer Market held a Farmer Appreciation Day on June 27 at the Pomeroy City Park. The market day was held as usual, with tickets for free meals for farmers and their families. Farming themed stickers were available at the Garfield County Health District booth.
Attending the market was a booth from the Eastern Washington Agricultural Museum with two tractors, several museum items, and a rope-making machine operated by Nancy Ruark. The rope maker was a popular attraction, with many children running through the park with strands of rope. It was rarely still.
The market also featured hand-made crafts, soaps, and baked goods.
